Other exposures
Which jobs are sources of lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel, cobalt, or mercury?
The draft corpus lists jobs such as battery recycling, chrome plating, and artisanal gold mining, and it marks those lists as unverified wording. They are not repeated as fact. Inhalation minimal risk levels that were recorded for elemental mercury, chromium(VI), and nickel are on those metal pages. They are not a job inventory.
What is not available

What's safe to buy
The Heavy Metal Tested and Certified public register listed no licensees on 15 October 2026. That page reported 0 certified brands and 0 certified products, and it stated that no brand has completed the three-lot baseline. A specimen layout on the register is an illustration, not a licensee. This page does not name or rank any brand.
The program states that certification is a measurement of a product against a published limit, not a statement that the product is safe. If a licensee is later listed for this category, it will be on the register.
